tsreaper opened a new pull request, #358:
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink-table-store/pull/358

   (Cherry-picked from #346)
   
   Currently `commitIdentifier` in `Snapshot` is a `String` value. However 
there are many scenarios where we need to compare two identifiers to find out 
which one is newer. For example
   
   * In FLINK-29840, we need to store the latest modified commit for each 
writer. Only when the latest snapshot is newer than this commit can we safely 
close the writer.
   * In FLINK-29805, we can read the commit identifier of the latest snapshot. 
All identifiers older than that should be filtered out.
   * In FLINK-29752, we need to trigger full compaction once in a few commits. 
We can read the latest commit identifier and compare it with the full 
compaction identifier to check if full compaction is successfully committed.
